Sikkim Tunic - Kala Cotton - Moonflower

A Maiwa classic designed with simplicity and versatility in mind, this long wrap jacket can be styled tied or left open for a beautiful layered look. Soft kala cotton gives the garment a fluid feel that is comfortable in warm weather and easy to layer into cooler evenings. A timeless piece that moves easily between travel, quiet evenings, and everyday wear.

Made with beautiful handwoven kala cotton cloth. Kala cotton is indigenous to the Kachchh region of India. It is highly sustainable and organic by nature, as farmers do not need to use any pesticides or synthetic fertilizers. All it needs to thrive is one monsoon a year. The final product is a desirable cotton with a natural fleck that softens with every wash.
